    Question for current Endo Residents and Endodontists

    For those of us starting Endo residencies next year, is there anything that you recommend we do to prepare? Is there anything you wish you had done or known before starting residency? Also, how necessary is it to have loupes? Do you ever use them as opposed to microscopes?
